At JetBrains, our whole world revolves around software development. It follows naturally that with everything we do, from the tools we develop to the Kotlin language – and even this survey – we have a vested interest in trying to make the lives of developers better. So that we can best serve the community, we ask you to contribute your valuable insights about the development ecosystem by taking this 15-20 minute survey, which is available in 8 languages. As always, we’ll share all the results of this survey, along with our most interesting findings, with everyone at the end. We’ll also pro

To monitor the rapidly changing State of the Developer Ecosystem, we, at JetBrains every year conduct a comprehensive survey to represent the developers in the world. Earlier this year we presented the results of the research in our Developer Ecosystem Infographic. You can find plenty of interesting charts and facts we have carefully prepared for you in it. But imagine, how many hidden insights the data may still contain. The survey consisted of more than 300 questions in addition to the ones presented in the infographic. Now, as usual, we are publicly sharing the raw data of the survey re

In the spring of 2018, we conducted the Data Science survey where we asked people from all over the world working with data to tell us about their work, tools, and practices. We distributed this survey via targeted ads on Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter to reduce any possible bias in the results towards our JetBrains audience. We collected about 400 sets of responses from the USA, Japan, and China, and used quotas to get another 400 responses from European countries. The main results of the research are presented in our Data Science 2018 infographics. And now we’ve also made the raw data avai

Update (August 13th): We’ve published the raw data. Get it! The programming world is growing and evolving. New technologies and tools are constantly emerging, and while some are gaining support and popularity, others are used less and less. We have set out to capture the current state of this ever-changing world. You will find representative answers and interesting facts about the current state of the ecosystem in our report and, maybe, learn something new. Our report covers a wide range of topics, with probing questions about programming languages (now including Rust), Databases, Team too

In the fall of 2018, the Python Software Foundation together with JetBrains conducted the official annual Python Developers Survey for the second time. Much like the previous survey, we set out to identify the latest trends and gather insight into how the world of Python development looks at the end of 2018. Over twenty thousand developers from more than 150 different countries participated last year to help us map out an accurate, up-to-date landscape of the Python community. That is more than twice as many Python users participating in 2018 as in 2017. We are super-excited to share the re

Update (August 13th): We’ve published the raw data. Get it! Update (June 11th): We have published the report. Check it out! At JetBrains, we strive to build tools that make developers more productive. To make our tools more relevant and useful for you, we want to know what is happening in the field of software engineering. This is why we are announcing the start of our third Developer Ecosystem Survey 2019. If you’re part of the IT industry, please take the survey to share your experiences. The survey should take about 10-15 minutes and is available in 8 languages. As a token of ou

Data Analysis, Machine Learning, and AI are rapidly growing in popularity and drawing more and more attention in tech news. How does the data science world look today and how is this industry sector evolving? What types of activities are data scientists primarily involved in? What programming languages and tools are in use? To answer these and many other important questions, last spring JetBrains conducted a Data Science Survey collecting responses from over 1,600 data scientists living in the US, Europe, Japan, and China. We are super-excited to share with you some of our incredible findings

Early this year, we ran our second yearly Developer Ecosystem Survey to reveal the most significant facts about developers and technologies. Since this June, we’ve been sharing these Infographics showcasing the most interesting results and insights from an even broader range of developer topics than last year. As the study consisted of over 150 questions, it was impossible to cover them all in the Infographics. So now, same as last year, we are publishing the anonymized raw data from the survey. If you’re interested in discovering development trends, be our guest – go right ahead, dig deeper

Update (November 5th): We’ve published the raw data. Check it out! Did you know that in 2018 …? - The top 3 primary programming languages are Java, JavaScript, and Python. - One out of five Kotlin developers works in a company of more than 5,000 employees. - Programmers are moving away from self-hosted and on-premises solutions and embracing major cloud providers. - Developers are sleeping more hours a day, on average, compared with 2017. We at JetBrains have revealed these and dozens of other significant facts about developers and technologies after running our annual Developer Ecosys

At the very end of 2017, the Python Software Foundation together with JetBrains conducted an official Python Developers Survey. We set out to identify the latest trends and gather insight into how the Python development world looks today. Over 9,500 developers from almost 150 countries participated to help us map out an accurate landscape of the Python community.We are super-excited to share the results of the survey with you! View the results of Python Developers Survey 2017 We hope the survey findings will help all of us better understand the current state of the Python developer community

This is the world we are a part of; we like to hear what you think so we can make sure the products we have fully serve the people that they are made for. But still, it is not always possible to represent everyone's input into the system. We all contribute in some way, by keeping languages from extinction, and helping others build in popularity; you are an importan

As you may recall, in early 2017 we at JetBrains ran the massive Developer Ecosystem survey to better understand developers and their needs all around the world. In July, we finished analyzing the collected data and published the most interesting findings in these Infographics. Now, as we promised, we’re sharing the raw data for the survey so that anyone in the developer community can analyze the results and answer whatever questions they have in mind. Before digging deeper into these data, please note the following important information: The data include responses from b

Update (Sep 11th): We’ve published the raw data for Developer Ecosystem Survey 2016 / 2017. Have a look! - Should I try this framework I heard about for my next project? - Which application server is the most used these days? - What technology/language should I learn to become better at what I do? Do you ask yourself stuff like this from time to time? WE DO. And we have another angle—it’s crucial for us to know our users well, so we’re ready to go the extra mile for this knowledge. To help us, we ran a huge Developer Ecosystem survey, collecting over 9,000 responses betwe

As mobile development is growing and a lot of JetBrains tools get increasingly exposed to mobile developers, we are looking to adapt and ensure the best experience. However, most of us are not particularly experienced in mobile development tech, which doesn't really help understand how we need to improve to achieve a better appeal to mobile developers. This is why we need your help to get a better understanding of mobile app development. If you have developed any mobile applications in the past 6 months, please lend us your expertise and take part in this 5-8 minute mobile development surve
